What's your deal?
 
I'm curious to find out what extras people got(if any) with their M3 purchase? Everytime I went to the dealer they would just say these cars are going fast and cant budge on the price. Maybe I should've pushed for a free spoiler?

I got my M3 Sport GT A/T, A/C, SunRoof, for 24040$ canadian plus 925$ freight and PDI.
My trade in is a 2001 Dodge Dakota Sport 2x4 with V8 and every dealer was giving me lower then 13000 for it (Black book says 15900 highest). Argus Mazda in Hull, gave me 16500 (After a few days of barganing) and dropped the price of the 3 by 300$ bellow MSRP.

From talking to others, everybody says I got a great deal cause they normaly don't drop bellow MSRP for a car like this that is in high demand and selling like hot cakes.

Still waiting on it, it's on it's way from Japan. Yeaterday, the dealer said it had docked in Vancover, so about another 1 1/2 weeks to go. Already been wayting 2 weeks.... !

Cant wait !

Later

When did they say it docked in Vancouver? I am waiting for mine and I am in Vancouver.

npereira February-20th-2004 06:39 PM

They said it was there now. But then again, you never know with these salesman... I mean saleswomen in my case.

She said another week and 1/2 approx. Already been waiting 2 weeks. and when I signed for it, they said they could not find one localy but they had one on a boat comming from Japan for them. She did tell me then that it WAS on the boat when she looked up the waybill info.

ready2race February-20th-2004 07:34 PM

Mine is probably on the same boat, but they said they never know how long the boat takes. I will be waiting a month on the 26th, but mine is a silver sedan, 2.3, every option except the GFX package.
$22,400

I got a good deal... I think
 
I bought a silver Mazda 3 Hatchback 2 weeks ago today and I am loving it. However, I can't wait until The come out with some mods for the engine.
My 3, like I said is a silver hatchback with a sunroof and the six cd sterio. I walked out of the door paying $18,700 before taxes. I think it was a bit of a steal. The car was listed at $20,700 but I told them that was too much so they brought it down to $19,800. So I called another Mazda dealer and they had the same car in blue, (which I prefered) so I told the salesman I was leaving to go somewhere else, so he went and talked to his boss and got another $1000 off the price. Then, even though I'm only 18 and a first time buyer I got him to bring the interest rate down to 3.9%.
So now I am paying only $333 a month for a short 3 year loan. I'm pretty happy with my deal and I feel you payed too much.
Anyways, it is an AWESOME car!!!

Mazda 3 GS with Air Grey QUOTE

Hey guys.. (er.. maybe Gals?)..

I need some advice ..

I'm ready to buy my Mazda 3 GS with Air / Titanium Grey lll This Week! However, the reps at Duff Mazda have been slow to release a deal on the car... infact I keep hearing about these surprise fees due at delivery.

Example

$18,800 .. Price of CAR (this is MSRP)
15% Tax
Freight 925
A/C air Tax 100
Gas / Emmissions Tax 75
Admin Fee 175
First payment / Last payment

They rep said we can negotiate once I come in to sign but I'd like someones advice on how to handle the negotiation so I don't get screwed. Half these taxes sound like crap.
Cheers,

ZoomZoomer

I'm sorry 333*36 isn't anywhere near the cost of the car. I think you got into a lease.

I got my GS with air and power package for a bit over 20 out the door. Theres a lot sitting on the lots so I'm sure they have surplus inventory. It just with the airbag thing I think they have to hold on to the cars till they fix the airbag sensor, for which the part is on a 2 week back order.

Redphage March-7th-2004 11:33 PM

Silver 3s 4dr with MT, Black/Red interior, Sport, Mooroof, and Rear Spolier = 17,936. About 20K after tax, fees, insurance, blah blah blah.
